Her editorial work is quite lame, but she's still a fave!

Do you mean in terms of what she's doing or the concepts of the eds?
I think she's had some pretty boring eds like the local stuff and some of the Tokyo stuff too, but some of her Vogue Australia work and campaigns have turned out really well.

I have to agree with cologne_rocks but I don't really mind. Frida's work was pretty boring while she was in Asia as well. I just like the security it's giving her. No doubt when she's launched in Europe, she will be an editorial success.

Well the Brisbane News editorials really aren't for people interested in fashion, they're just put in there to show off the clothes to normal, everyday people. And the editorials from Japan are all just one-page, themed, commercial stuff. Once she finishes the Fall/Winter show circuit in March, the editorials she'll be getting will be brilliant.

The February 2011 edition of Vogue Australia doesn’t just offer up Catherine McNeil’s fifth cover of the magazine. It also represents the return of Myf Shepherd to modelling after a year hiatus to study set design in Sydney. McNeil’s Chic Management stablemate rocketed to international modelling stardom after her debut at Rosemount Australian Fashion Week in May 2008, walking the runways of some of the world's biggest fashion names and booking campaigns including Gucci and Miu Miu, only to put her burgeoning career on ice this time last year. Chic Management reports that the Vogue shoot was Shepherd’s first job back at work. She appears in six images in the massive 30-page New Season Hit List story that was shot by Nicole Bentley and also stars Codie Young, Alice Burdeu, Samantha Harris, Ruby Jean Wilson and Annaleise Smith. Chic reports that Shepherd has also shot a campaign for Myer [possibly the autumn/winter 2011 campaign] in addition to two other local campaigns. “Myf’s back modelling” Chic Management director Kathy Ward told frockwriter. “She’s continuing on with her studies but she’s very excited to be based in Sydney now and modelling for top end magazines and securing some major Australian campaigns as well. She may go back for the [Haute Couture SS11 or FW1112] shows, although there are no plans at this stage. But things happen very quickly, there’s a slight chance she may”.

So that's two Vogue Australia eds to look forward to.

This new Vogue editorial is my favorite work of Codie's yet, absolutely stunning!!! She finally shows some depth in terms of posing, especially in the second and fourth shots.

A really great statement about Codie, and really exciting!!!

MODEL MOMENTS

This year was all about Dutch model Lara Stone. Her gap-toothed pout, blonde locks and luscious curves graced almost every quality magazine cover and Stone also snared a prestigious trifecta - the autumn-winter jeans, CK and mainline campaigns for Calvin Klein. To cap off a terrific 2010, Stone married British comedian David Walliams at London's Claridge's Hotel in May.

Melbourne-born Abbey Lee Kershaw also had a busy 12 months, including closing Chanel's spring-summer couture show in January, opening its autumn-winter show in March and starring in advertising campaigns for Chanel and Lagerfeld's own label this year. When she lopped off her locks Australian salons reported a rush of requests for the resultant choppy bob with a thick fringe that was christened The Kob.

The Australian model factory continued to churn out fabulously slim girls ready to follow in the pony steps of Kershaw and Catherine McNeil. The best of the bunch was 2010 Australian Vogue cover girl Codie Young. The Queenslander's hooded eyes and aristocratic neck make her the Girl Most Likely in the Class of 2011, with Myf Shepherd and former Australia's Next Top Model winner Alice Burdeau also expected to return to the fashion forefront next year.

In men's modelling androgyny continues to make an editorial impact with Broadmeadows boy Andrej Prejic working his he/she vibe for Jean-Paul Gaultier. But for the major houses expect the trend towards older male models to continue. It seems that slim-hipped skater boys and ultra-thin 15-year olds are not the target market for four-figured cashmere suits.

"Girl Most Likely in the Class of 2011"

Let's hope! I think right now she's very underrated. I haven't really gotten to see her runway, but her editorials are lovely.

Her motheragent just tried to keep her a bit under the radar as she's still in school. As such, not too much travelling and no fashion week. A wise decision!

 

[theripper]

^ I agree. Most Australian models finish school before they go international and start the show circuit (Abbey Lee didn't go international until she was about 20), whereas most European models start out earlier. Codie is finally finished school and headed for New York in about two weeks to start Fall/Winter castings. Once fashion week starts, her career will skyrocket!

Codie is heading to New York tomorrow. I read something a while ago saying that she wasnt leaving until the middle of January, so she must be going over earlier because there's heaps of interest in her.

I know that Codie's in New York doing castings and fittings at the moment, so I'm starting to wonder what shows she'll walk in when New York Fashion Week starts. Hopefully she'll walk as many as possible, but if I had to choose, I think she'd be most suited to Rodarte, Marc Jacobs, Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, Jason Wu, Preen and BCBG Max Azria. How exciting!
